Overview of AirNow#

The AirNow API provides access to real-time air quality data from across the United States, offering insights into the AQI (Air Quality Index) for various pollutants. With this data, developers can create applications that inform users about the air quality in their immediate environment or trigger actions based on changes in pollution levels. On Pipedream, one can leverage AirNow's data to automate notifications, integrate environmental data into smart home systems, or even drive data analysis and reporting for health and safety monitoring.

Connect AirNow#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    airnow: {
      type: "app",
      app: "airnow",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://www.airnowapi.org/aq/forecast/zipCode/`,
      params: {
        format: `application/json`,
        API_KEY: `${this.airnow.$auth.api_key}`,
        zipCode: `YOUR_ZIP_CODE`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Node#

Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.

This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json file or running npm install.

Below is an example of installing the axios package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:

Connect Node#

// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function
export default defineComponent({
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    // Return data to use it in future steps
    return steps.trigger.event
  },
})
